Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
I love the idea of recycling postage stamps — artwork in miniature — into earrings. The fact that I’m a Frank Lloyd Wright fan doesn’t hurt, either. C.D. Childs offers a number of vintage postage stamp jewelry items, each encased in glass and finished with lead-free solder.

It is no secret I love miniatures and I love mushrooms. Oh and of course acorns 🙂 So why not mix up nature’s craft supplies and make mini mushrooms out of acorns? Pop on over to the blog Laura Radniecki for the step by step tutorial on how to make recycled acorn cap mini mushroom ornaments. I might try painting the caps too?
I love your creative ideas. Heres another one though, zipper earings.
I really love this idea! I have tons of vintage stamps that I save for special letters, cards etc, I love recycling, upcycling, repurposing! These look great, and really wearable. I’m kicking around an idea with vintage railway passes, and this gives me great inspiration! GO GIRL GO!
